That's correct Ron that the usage is a per reference instance, but since some tokens have closed content model there may be a need to associate a usage with them and since we have no general SecurityToken one uses a STR with a usage attribute on a token, the usage of wsse:embedded allows any token otherwise there is no element to contain a token that does not fit the type define in WSS.

any usage attributes pertain to the reference not the token; independent
of whether or not the token is embedded.
How does a need yo hang usage attributes on an str, create a need for
the embedded str?
